BEFORE FIRST USE
1. Take the appliance and its accessories out of the packaging materials.
2. Before first use, wipe the stainless steel surface of the heating plate A3 using a cloth dampened in
a solution of warm water and neutral kitchen detergent. Use a cloth dampened in warm water to
thoroughly wipe the surface on to which you applied the kitchen detergent and then wipe it dry.
3. Wash the removable lid A1 and the removable egg tray A2 in warm water using a neutral kitchen
detergent. Then rinse these parts under running water and dry them.
4. Now the appliance is ready for operation.
OPERATION OF THE EGG COOKER
1. Unwind the power cord and place the appliance on a stable, even and clean surface.
2. Place the egg tray A2 on the heating plate A3 so that the edge of the heating plate A3 slides
into the groove on the underside of the egg tray A2.
Attention:
Take care not to mistake the top and bottom sides of the egg tray A2. When incorrectly
installed, the egg tray A2 will not be stable and it could fall.
3. Now measure out the water using the included measuring cup Aqa. Only fill the measuring cup Aqa
with cold drinking water. Do not add any other substances, e.g. salt.
The amount of water depends on the desired egg consistency (soft, medium or hard) and the
number of eggs. Three measuring scales are marked on the measuring cup Aqa:
– "Soft" (soft-boiled egg);
– "Medium" (medium-boiled egg);
– "Hard" (hard-boiled egg).
Each scale has marks with numbers 1 to 7, which serve to measure out water according to the
number of eggs.
Example for measuring out the correct amount of water
You need to measure out water for four soft-boiled eggs. Fill the measuring cup Aqa with cold
drinking water up to the mark with the number 4 on the "Soft" scale (soft-boiled).
Note:
Even when the same amount of water and cooking time is used, the consistency of individual
eggs may differ as a result of their varying sizes or freshness.
4. Pour the measured out amount of water on to the heating plate A3. Take care that water is not
spilled on to the base unit of the appliance A4 or that water does not flow over the edge of the
heating plate A3.
5. Place the number of eggs (pointing upwards) corresponding to the measured out water into the
egg tray A2. A maximum of 7 eggs can be boiled at the one time. Always use only fresh eggs.
Tap and pierce the tip of every egg using the piercing pin Aqs located on the underside of the
measuring cup Aqa. Do not use excessive force so as not to crack the egg. As a result of being
pierced, a small amount of egg white may escape on to the surface of the shell, where it will
harden. This is a completely normal event.
Attention:
Be especially careful not to injure yourself on the egg piercing pin Aqs located on the underside
of the measuring cup Aqa.
6. Put on the lid A1 and check that it is properly seated on the egg tray A2.
